As systems become more electrified, designers are required to ensure compliance of electric drive systems in terms of electromagnetic, thermal, noise, vibration, and structural analysis. Simcenter integrated motor design<\/a> and system analysis<\/a> solutions are well-positioned to meet these needs. An integrated workflow allows designers to be more decisive from the start, compressing the overall design cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1D electric machine models are indispensable in electric-drive system analysis and emulators. They are used to validate real-time controllers (SIL, HIL, and PHIL), without the need of a physical machine, or when it is under prototype. This is a flexible and cost-effective way of testing electric-drives without investing in rotating machines and dynamometers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The model fidelity is design-stage dependent. For instance, in the initial sizing of the system, the goal is to ensure that the components meet the global steady-state performance and energy requirements. Hence, fast simpler models are used. Reliability virtual testing such as fault analysis and controller design necessitates more accurate models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To support the flexibility in model export, the new release of Simcenter Motorsolve V6.3<\/a>\u00a0as explained in this webinar<\/a>, supports four types of exports to Simcenter Amesim<\/a> (see figure above):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Functional model (Static): <\/strong>A simple quasi-static model that is well suited for power budget or energy management in pre-sizing or validation.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    1. Equivalent Electric Circuit (Quasi-static): <\/strong>A simple linear model that is typically used in controls development.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      1. Equivalent Electric Circuit (Dynamic): <\/strong>A non-linear model that gives more insight into the motor behavior under high currents or fault conditions.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        1. Equivalent Electric Circuit (Dynamic-Spatial): <\/strong>A non-linear model that includes spatial effects such as slots and rotor. It allows torsional vibration analysis and winding current distortions. It is also invaluable in controller validation.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          The following video demos this integrated workflow between motor design and system-level mechatronics analysis, that is, Simcenter Motorsolve V6.3<\/a> and Simcenter Amesim<\/a>. Hence, designers can evaluate whether the electric machine meets the system\u2019s design requirements, within the specified operating conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          These automated export options ease the workflow for Simcenter Amesim\u00a0users, by getting rid of the burden required to design, analyze, and export electric machine 1D models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Simcenter Motorsolve<\/a> is part of the unified Simcenter low-frequency electromagnetic solutions for electric machine design and analysis<\/a> that also includes Simcenter MAGNET<\/a> and Simcenter SPEED<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
